Set just months after Star Trek: Nemesis we find the crew of the Sovereign-class Starship Ascendant traversing a region of space known as the Krona-Expanse, a massive nebula over nine sectors in diameter in search of new life and civilizations. But a journey through an unidentified spatial anomaly throws them clear across the Expanse an into uncharted territory, where they are easy picking for a squadron of Romulan Warships.
With the ship coming apart around them, the crew are forced to evacuate and land on a nearby planet, thousands of light-years from home.
As the dust settles, it becomes clear that the Ascendant survivors that any kind of rescue is highly unlikely. A strange energy field around the planet prevents any type of transmission being sent through it and its mysterious properties cause the few remaining support craft's engines to be all but useless.
Realizing that they are without any chance of rescue, the crew come to the disturbing conclusion that they are now forced to make a life for themselves here on this Strange New World... a world with dangerous indigenous life, unusual phenomena and now the survivors of the Ascendant, trapped here.
Will they turn on each other? Will they band together and more importantly, will they survive on a world so far away from everything they hold dear?
Alone. With no chance of survival, beyond the final frontier. Will they survive?

SEASON ONE
1x01: Before The Fall [Part 1]
The Starship Ascendant continues exploring the Krona Expanse, a massive sectors-wide nebula deep in the Beta Quadrant only charted by unmanned probes. Life on the Sovereign-class starship continues as normal for the crew of over 700 souls. But everything they know is all about to change, as they come across a mysterious anomaly...
1x02: Before The Fall [Part 2]
Surviving their violent sojourn through the anomaly, the crew of the U.S.S. Ascendant find themselves propelled thousands of light-years from home, in orbit of an M-class planet. Seemingly peaceful, but a mystery to their sensors, it is a strange new world for them to learn about. But as they begin repairs, they soon discover that they are not the only ones in the area...
1x03: Rapid Descent
A surprise attack by superior Romulan forces has the crew of the Ascendant scrambling to be on the defensive. But as lives are lost and the ship burning around them, the crew must pull together like never before. This is one fight they may not win...
1x04: Point of Impact
Following a crash landing in a badly damaged shuttle, Myra Shaw finds herself thrust into commanding the survivors of the Starship Ascendant as they find themselves in unfamiliar and hostile territory on a strange new world. As Kelham makes what repairs he can, Shaw works to make contact with any and all crew who may also have made planet-fall.
1x05: The Empty Castle
As Aldred uses what little sensors can provide to understand the energy field around the planet that is keeping them grounded, Kelham and Shaw draw up plans to help provide the Ascendant survivors with needed power on scant resources. To assist, McKenchie joins Perry on a team looking for more survivors, hoping to scavenge for supplies, but they stumble upon something no one was expecting - the wreckage of a Borg Cube!
SEASON TWO
2x01: Fallen Star
As the days stretch into weeks since the crew of the Starship Ascendant began calling this strange new world home, things begin to settle down. That is, until the abrupt impact of an apparent meteorite causes untold disastrous effects across the planet. Commander Myra Shaw must organize and lead her tired crew in an effort to keep their new home safe.
2x02: Riding The Storm
The crew work to prevent their new home from being destroyed by the fierce sand-storm that threatens to tear it apart. Aldred and McKenchie's investigation into the ship that crashed brings several new mysteries.
2x03: Firestorm
As the Tholians regroup and launch a devastating attack against Camp Ascendant, the survivors are scattered as they try to make sure they are not overrun. But can their rag-tag group really stand up to the might of the Tholians?
2x04: When We Rise [Part 1]
With the Tholian threat neutralized, at least for now, the survivors of Camp Ascendant deal with the strange mystery of the energy field surrounding the planet. Their studies of the anomaly are cut short when their distress call receives an unexpected reply. But who is it that is responding? Are they friend... or foe?
2x05: When We Rise [Part 2]
The origins of the mystery ship trapped within the planet's energy field is revealed. As Shaw and her crew try to understand this bizarre new twist in their current predicament, a crew out of their own time must deal with what the future appears to show them. Both crews will have to come together to further understand this strange new world that they have been forced to call home...
